Animal-Mother posted:You know how sometimes you'll be reading a book and the author will describe the appearance of a character and you just decide, "No, he doesn't look like that." That's how I feel about Kim's voice. He doesn't sound like that and you can't make me think he does. Appalling opinion

Mae posted:Balcony smoker man is the best VA in the game because that’s just what Virgil sounds like I don't recall which episode it is, but is the one that they talk about Disco after wiping the floor with awards and going from the way Virgil and Menaker talk about it, they were kinda coy about the work they put in afterwards. They joked about phoning it purposefully while Matt and Felix actually put some effort (of the chapo characters Titus is the best voiced imo) (Dasha doesn't count because she is a trained actress lol)

I can’t imagine playing the game with the dialogue audio turned off, if only for Kim’s voice actor and Measurehead.

at least for DE, hearing what each person sounded like made me connect with them a lot more. not everything needs to be acted but just bits and pieces, maybe across different emotions, is perfect

JustaDamnFool posted:I'm not entirely sure why, but Kim praying and making the 1 in a million shot had me tearing up. The whole sequence is terriyfying and beautiful it's because it's a powerful scene op also in all seriousness part of why that scene pays off so hard is the foreshadowing. kim's status as a dang ol' binoclard with bad vision comes up multiple times - peering into abandoned buildings on the coast, or mentioning that he passes his shooting exams 7 out of 10 after failing to shoot down the corpse. suddenly over the course of a few very tense minutes (and god it's amazing that they build the tension in a situation with absolutely no real-life time pressure) you're thinking about little throwaway lines like that. whole game's full of poo poo like that and it owns Lasting Damage posted:I could listen to Precinct 41 Major Crime Unit forever. hell fuckin yeah dude. someone who knows more about music than me (ie. pretty much anything) could probably comment on its use of, uh, motifs and stuff from other parts of the soundtrack like the tribunal theme World War Mammories fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Nov 24, 2020 |

Just found out that Disco Elysium was mostly funded by Margus Linnamäe, an insanely wealthy Estonian venture capitalist and business magnate. Flipped privatized Soviet-era companies for a big profit, invests in just about every thing these days and parks his money in offshore companies. And now he owns the country's largest newspaper with which he sways national politics towards nationalist and conservative views. I guess no game gets made as independently as Stardew Valley these days, but there's certainly some irony that such a game gets funded by... such a person.
